 It might very appropri ately be asked what personal interest. of 90 great char. acse', a governor can have in legislation, who has no property interests in the ter ritory. The JoURKAL-MINER has here tofore answered this question, only to be met with personal abuse from the editor of the governors personal organ. A few more days will develop the correctness or mistake of ou, predictions and as.er- tions, which are that an appropriaiion will be asked for the payment of cestain expenditures, made by the governor, of doubtful utility to the territory, as ~eIl as oi doubtful legality. his only hope of carrying which is by the whipping in" method attempted at last Friday nights caucus
 O course, the failure of success on Friday night will not end the matter. While it has had discouraging effect on the governors party." il hes not de stroyed all hope, and the fertile and ever active brains of the ''powers that be" will b. engaged in devising some new method to accomplish their purpose Iu the meantime, the people of tbis terri tory. irrespective of politics or partie& will watch with interest the action of their representatives to see whether they will fall down and vosship ttis NacosMi god of greatness.

Mr.. EDIroR:-I ask space in the COL
umns OF your paper in vindication OF
mys> II and the memory of my honored
husband and beloved children.
There are reports going that my family
were entirely destitute and money was
made up tor my benefit. / now denounce
this as utterly false in regard to my des-
titution, for had plenty OF friends, true
and tried, who would gladly have done
all in their power for me or mine. Money
as l have been informed, was made ";
out of that sum l had Sligo, which was
handed to me by a gentleman, whom q
thought) took it from his own pocket,
had no change about tt e house expect
ing to hand it back to him, stating also
to him that was expecting draft in
every mail, which l received the next
morning before b.eakt; st, but heard
afterwards that this :: me gentleman had
asked people to contribute for my bcne-
fit l knew nothing of this. FOR my
husband was quite i'll al the time, but
was told by my servant. / went to
several parties and paid out OF my OWL
purse SII.7s; arties are, DIR. Morris,
Mr.. Sisson and Mr.. Bell; also paid Mr..
Bennett tor a sack of -four that he had
sent to nv house. While do feel hurt
at the gentleman for his hasty move
ment. will say / think his motive was a
pure one. But l wish the people of
Butler ana Bates county to understar
that am no pauper, did not spring
from 4 family of paupers, for my family

NO LOCAL OPTION.
Judge Burgess Renders His Declsion
ut Trenton, MO.-The Law Declared
Unconstitutional.

Trenton, Mo-, Sept. 22.-Judges
Burgess rendered his opinion to-day
in the case of the state at the relation
OF William Maggard against the
county court of Grundy county, in
volving the constitutionality of the
local option law.
Maggard applied for a dramshop
license September l, and the county
court refused to grant on the sole
ground of the adoption of the local
option law. Maggard then applied
to Judge Burgess for writ of man
damus to compel the court to issue
the license. An alternative writ was
granted, and the case came to trial
yesterday. Arguments were made
pro and con as to the constitutional
ty of the law, lasting from Z o'clock
last evening until 3 o'clock this even
ing, when Judge Burgess rendered
his decision that the law was uncon-
stitutional. An appeal will be taken
to the supreme court at once.
Judge Burgess is recognized as
one of the ablest judges in the state,
aud lawyers in this section are pretty
generally of the opinion that his de-
cision will be affirmed by the supreme
court.

turn stopped to talk to Ambrose Shaw,
colored, who was pulling fodder.
Cam took the gun from his shoulder
and carelessly dropped it upon his
arm, when it was discharged, the load
entering the left shoulder of the negro
and inAictiug very painful, though
not serious wound.

Col. R. Z. Taylor has been appoin'
ted Clerk and Master of the Chan>

caused by the death of Mr.. K. E

A better appointment could net have
been made and his many friends con-

at his residence early last Tuesday

The gentleman who sent US the fol-
lowing certificate is the City Marshal
of Iuka, Miss, and is man of high
character and prominently known
throughout the state. His son had
suffered intensely for six years from
an eruption of the skin, caused by
poison oak, All remedies, it appears,
failed, until, fortunately, S. S. S. was
tried, when the cure was made with
wonderful promptness. Here is what
this gentleman says:
Gentlemen-My son had suffered
for the past six years with an eruption
on his legs, caused from poison oak
and cracking of the feet. Nothing
seemed to eradicate the poison from
the blood until gave him one hottie
of Swift's Specific. This entirely
cured him, and l heartily recommend
it to the public as a sure cure for poi
son oak.

| We then subscribed for larg,
number of copies loaded with loca
advertising and full accounts of oul
furure prospects and great advanta
ges, and we found by conversing
with parties who finally come here
prospecting that the full advertising
columns of our paper which they
saw did more to impress them with
the growth and importance of the
place.
We found that we could not over
do this thing-that the more we
paid out for these purposes the
more were our profits, Every new
conner was customer to most of
our stores, and while their advertis-
ing paid them rich returns ii served
the double purpose to impress the
Eastern man, who had an eye to
business, with the facts that Nieh-
ita was in fact a rising town and
thus we advertised by hundreds and
thousands of circulars. We set
forth all our advantages in such a
manner that strangers who were led
by our circulars to give us a call
were not deceived, but on TIE con-
trary, agreed that we had not put it
as strong as we might. Every town
in the east of notoriety was not on
lY served with our circulars but
newspapers.
And the newspaper advertising
done double duty. Our people
made it rule to advertise in our
local paper, and asked all their
friends to advertise and have gone
on, until we have an added popula-
ton since | came here ofoyer 10000
